Test Portal

Projection Reflex art installation

During the bi-annual international Now Art exhibition Testportal at the Docklands in Amsterdam, contemporary Dutch visual artist Hester van Dapperen was invited to create an art installation in participation with the audience and other artists.

Art installation ‘Projection Reflex’ aims at audience participation. Three large colourfields catch the shadows that are created when people enter the area where the art installation is set up. Beamed light hits the participating audience which in turn creates the dropshadows on the colourfield painting. When this occurs the painting is temporarily complete.
